It was a very busy Friday night with a big party outside. Service was not as attentive as we have come to appreciate. We had to inquire about our wine order which was not brought to us and had to ask for our bill which took a long time to come. Food was delicious.

As always, we enjoyed the amazing food, great wine and especially our gracious, friendly hosts from the maitre’ de, our waiter, the support staff and Sommelier. The Brasserie feels like our home away from home

Food was the same as upstairs, excellent. Plus, you could have a smaller meal because it was ala carte. However, the rathskeller decor and close proximity of the tables inside made it noisy and not very private. We had some folks at the next table who compensated by talking loudly and abrasively, which detracted from our dinner. So I would only use the covered patio, weather permitting, if you go there.

The service was generally good, but a bit slow and confused at times. However, we prenotified that this was a special occasion but there was no acknowlegement at any time when we were there.

The restaurant staff, service, ambiance and food are just amazing! You truly feel you stepped into a French Countryside Restaurant. A Special Treat and cannot wait to return for another Wonderful Experience!!

I love the new patio!! A great spot for brunch or dinner. The food is consistently fantastic. Anything you order will arrive perfectly cooked. Right now the gardens are overflowing with perfect tomatoes. Chef is usually there running between the kitchen and the garden to serve the freshest produce grown on the premises. The service always compliments the fabulous cuisine.

The food was excellent - we had the beef bourguignon and medallions of beef tenderloin at our table and all four of us cleaned our plates the food was so good. The service was also very good. We will definitely return and highly recommend.

Excellent alternative to the more pricey L'Auberge. The Brasserie is located downstairs from the main dining room in a cozy setting. If you can dine in nice weather, I highly recommend the lovely patio area.

First time to Brassiere. It is a great place for casual dining. As always L'Auberge did not disappoint. Everything was first class and very reasonably priced. We'll make this a regular stop from now on.

It was a very busy evening at Jacque’s which contributed to the only two negatives of the evening — a noise level that nearly precluded dinner conversation and unusually slow service. We had to wait a significant amount of before ultimately flagging down our waiter to order, an incorrect first course was brought to the table for one of our party (which was quickly corrected), and it took quite a while to get our waiter’s attention to bring the check. Our waiter was inattentive, at best, although appeared to be quite busy with tables inside and outside. We’ve dined at Jacque’s several times and this was the first poor service experience we’ve had.

The food and ambiance was as good as always but the service was really not at their normal level. Our table appeared to be the only one our server had in doors and the rest were outside. This means our server was never around and she was slow to take our order and then the Maitre'D got our wine for us. Clearly if the outdoors is the preferred option due to lovely weather, the wait staff should not be split between inside and out.

This review is more about the service we received and less about the food, which was as delicious as usual. My wife and I are regulars and this was our 2-year-old daughter's third time visiting Jacques' Brasserie. It was my wife's birthday, so we were celebrating by dining "al fresco" under the newly installed red canopy when a strong summer storm swiftly came rolling through. It was exciting, with the thunder and lightning and driving rain, but the water found its way to us so we relocated to an inside table. The frequenters dining next to us helped us with our bags and the waiters helped bring in our glasses of wine and bread plates. We resumed dinner in the lively atmosphere of our fellow patrons. All in all, we were extremely pleased with our dining experience and, because of the unexpected weather, the waitstaff made the extra effort to ensure this was a treat; it will not be soon forgotten. Bon appetite!

I went to Jacques’Brasserie for the second time in 4 years to celebrate some good news I received on August 1st. My friend had to cancel on me, and I was 10 minutes late (but I called 25 minutes ahead of time to notify I was running 10 minutes late). It was a great experience regardless of being alone.

Great food. Always solid French bistro menu. Service and greeting is top notch. We have been there multiple times and have never been disappointed. We sat outside under the new covered awning and it couldn’t be better. What a place and it’s understandably crowded every night

You can read my long list of reviews for possibly my favorite restaurant. I love Jacques' Brasserie. It is downstairs at L'Auberge Chez Francois. It is a lovely, cozy restaurant that has a beautiful bar. I make sure that I don't rush anything when I'm at Jacques'. I want to enjoy it and take my time. On this visit, we brought our dear friend from Louisiana. He comes from a French family so we were excited to bring him "downstairs". He has been to L'Auberge on another visit but we wanted him to get the Jacques' Brasserie experience. Just like us, he loved the garlic toast and cottage cheese spread. He started with a roquefort salad, I started with the roquefort tart. I was very excited to find out they had the pea soup that evening. I love it so much. It is a beautiful soup, creamy and smooth. I could easily have this soup any time of the year as well as the lentil soup. Amazing soups. Both my husband and friend got the Lobster Thermidor which is on the menus on Friday nights. It is rich and elegant. A lobster that is poached in butter then put back in the shell with cheese and sauce then broiled. It is sweet. I always have a bite of my husbands. To me it taste like sweet langostinos. Fresh vegetables from the garden accompany the lobster. I always get my own plate of veggies. They are so delicious especially the carrots. We all got raspberry soufflé's to end our meal. If you get a mixed drink, try the Sage Cape Cod. My husband loves them. I love everyone at Jacques'. Chef Jacques and Carol are amazing people who care about their patrons and thank them. Danny is amazing. Danny knows exactly what we eat, drink and where we like to sit. He is one of the kindest people too. There is nothing like Jacques' in the area. I highly recommend it as well as L'Auberge Chez Francois. You will go back again and soon become a regular.

Every time I have visited Jacques', the service and food have been excellent. I don't know the name of the Maitre d who works in Jacques', but he has been there every time I've gone and he has always been wonderful.

It's been many many years since we been to L'Auberge, and I have been wanting to try the Brasserie. It did not disappoint! We picked the perfect evening, beautiful weather. Everything was delicious and the service was impeccable. We'll be back again very soon!
